I have started ‘leaving the house’ in the morning, but all I do is walk around the block and then pretend to ‘arrive’ at work. Maybe I’m crazy, but it feels better than slithering from my bed to the coffee machine to the computer like some sort of lizard like I used to .

You leave your bed to do work? It’s called a LAPtop for a reason....

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!
